Guys, we're mountain biking... bush, trees and the like... Is it really smart to put hooks on the ends of your bars to catch whatever you're not able to dodge?

from Sedona, AZ Date Reviewed: June 10, 2011 Strengths: I have cervical disk injuries and been the ringer on grips. I am soooooo happy I found this grip because it does not exacerbate the numbness in my left hand nor nerve pinching in my neck. I'm able to ride much longer and more aggressively. The trails are very technical and whether I'm climbing or descending they are superb! Weaknesses: I can't honestly say "weight" because I could have bought the carbon version! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Most single track Duration Product Used: 6 months Purchased At: Absolute Bikes Similar Products Used: Too many! Bike Setup: 2011 Giant Trance x1 with lots of swap outs on the parts
